- Ice Fishing for GIANT PIKE IS BACK! If I could only fish for one fish for the rest of my life, I think Pike would have an honest chance at being that species. I would rather not it be the only fish I fish for, but I do love chasing GIANT GATORS!

#Getoutside #ClaytonSchickOutdoors #Bigpike
That was priceless to see the smile on Carter's face when the fish was ripping drag great job Carter that's what it's all about, you the man ! Congrats Carter on your PB that was sick bro !
Clayton, I always see comments that you and your channel are the best on TH-cam...not gonna lie...the people are probably right. Man, your patience, passion and excitement are so contagious. I can't imagine how many people you've motivated to "get outside"!! Keep it coming my brother. 😊🐟 Good stuff!
I appreciate the kind words! I am just trying to make fun, educational and entertaining videos all at the same time :)
MN catfisherman here. As others have said, you don't need to let them eat it forever. Also, you should offset your circle hooks a bit with a pliers. This helps a lot too! Additionally, use a BIG circle hook. As big as you can get away with. The bigger gap tends to help a ton with big baits.
Also a knotless knot works well to act as a triggering effect. Look it up and you will see what I mean.
Awesome video! Love that you're trying different tactics as I always wondered about circle hooks for winter tipup fishing.
I've caught 30 catfish in a night with all of them being hooked shallow in the mouth. I've also caught dogfish on them and both fish swallowed it completely. They do work with some fish but maybe not all?
Awesome to see Clayton and Carter share those big fish moments together as fishing buds. Good job with this episode and keep up the good work!
"Not bad.."
That Carter, he's friggin awesome!
Thanks, Clayton, for making sure on a rainy day here in New York, at least I can watch some great fishing!
I could only hope my boys have the same smile on their faces when they get to be his age. You can see the pure enjoyment. What a great relationship you guys have.
Carter put on a show for this one. Great job 👏 congrats on the pb
Thank you for fighting through the head cold clay! I appreciate you so much! Love seeing you fish with a parter no one better then carter!…safety never takes a holiday.
Another awesome video Clayton. Congratulations to Carter on his PB pike. You guys slayed them, 3 over 41" wow.
Fun fact: Clayton is the most accurate fish measurement estimator on TH-cam.
I would not argue with that statement lol :)
Most accurate fish estimator alive***
That underwater footage is WILD Clay! Crazy how they linger around that long.
They are sure fun to watch!
I've fished big pike in open water and hard water with circle hooks. I've found you can set the hook fairly quick, with a "sweeping" hook set, and then you get that corner of the mouth hook-up. Hope this helps!
Congratulations Carter. That was really fun to watch. Clayton is a super guy to have in your life. I'm smiling too.
Thanks for the kind words!
Amazing to see the fooler in action!! The hole covers are incredible in colder conditions!!!
They are nice!
The circle hook hardly ever works when you let the fish really choke down the bait. They function as advertised when set on a semi slack line. Good for when bait fishing with a set line right to drag. When they scoop the whole bait up and run right away then on that tight line it goes into the corner. When they have it in the stomach or super deep in the gullet it doesn’t function well,
Yup awesome for catfishing or any set line! Maybe if you put the line into the snow or something so it sets itself like it should. Interesting concept for tip ups though
Say clayton first hello from alaska, when your useing circle hooks for pike its not really settin the hook like lakers. Its more bring in line till you feel it resist let off and then kinda just fast lift the tip of your pole so the circle hook gets past the gill raker teeth, you want the hook to kinda make a pop or a quick very small jerk
Hey Clayton. I use circle hooks all the time when I fish for Channel Cats on the Red. Have been using them for years and 9 times out of 10 they are pinned in the corner of the mouth. We hit them really quick however and don’t give them a chance to swallow the bait down. That maybe the difference!! Regardless I am glad to see you experiment with circles. Your content is always informative and makes me a better angler. Tight lines
Maybe I need to try to hit them sooner. I just fear of the pike facing towards me and them coming right out. I will try a little more for sure!
Thank you!!! I’ve been catching 50lb plus cats on the Tennessee river for years on circle hooks and I immediately knew the problem here 😂😂
Mr Clayton and carter do it best. Pike like that are what dreams are made of!
Clayton, have you tried a snell knot or variation of snell on those hooks with the offset? It will help keep the hook shank straighter on hookset.
100 percent agree. I use a smell knot with the offset circle hooks and I almost never hook them deep. I also find a better hookup rate on the offset circle hooks (gamakatsu) versus straight shank circle hooks
Watch out that boy is going to take over your chanel. Great job to the both of you.
I am ok with that :)
Dang right. Pass on the fishing passion and mojo. In the end things are just things but knowledge is everything.
Great video! And for the circle hooks, I would say the only thing to change is not let them eat so long. If you watch videos of snapper fishing or grouper fishing in the Florida keys where you can only use circle hooks for those fish, you will notice with dead bait or live bait, as soon as the fish takes the bait you start reeling. No matter what hook you use if the fish eats long enough it has the potential to be swallowed.
Might be worth trying 100%
These Pike are so hesitant sometimes, like we see in this video on the Aqua-Vu, they spit the bait a few times before taking it...
Those cameras are amazing…..people never really knew how long or how many times those fish come back for another look. I am def. getting one 👍
Love pike fishing.
For circle hooks, you want to have quite a bit of the hook exposed. From what I saw you put it pretty deep in the bait, which kind of makes sense why it kept going deeper down. Love your content, keep it up! Hello from Alberta
I Literally just started ice fishing this year. And I hope to get something set up like you also love to see you fishing with your son. Hoping to get my 4 year old out . Your awesome man
Hope you get out there with your young one!
Great content Clayton! I think you were hooking the fish in the gullet because you were letting the fish eat it so long. I could be wrong but that’s my opinion
Keep up the good videos man definitely some of the best ice fishing content out there I learn so much watching your videos
I just stumbled upon your channel and I just want to commend you for your thoughtfulness for the fish. From your handling, to using hooks that are less damaging, to even how you make a concerted effort to limit the amount of time you spend fighting the bigger fish to limit fatigue. A lot of anglers could do well to learn from your example and you have earned my subscription. Thank you.
Appreciate the kind words!! I always try to take care the fish the best I can :)
Best ice fishing content creator to ever exist. You’re a damn legend. Would like to see if you have anything mounted! Those are some absolute tanks. 25lbs might be my cutoff for one to go on the wall.
i would imagine he has some fiberglass replica mounts. that's what i'll do with my bigger fish someday
Holy cow I thought I accidentally clicked on how bit coined is mined with that Command center! Great video!
That video was awesome!!! What an average ! I love that you have so many underwater cameras going and lots on cameras top side as well. Always makes for such an enjoyable video to watch.
man your dialled! always love the vids! very good role model for carter! keep up the great work!
Great video Clayton keep them coming. Carters smile on his face when that fish took drag is priceless.
Yea buddy, I love watching you bring in those giant pike.
i let them take the bait with like 2 or 3lbs of drag tension on the line and it sets the hook but still lets them run. with finicky fish that you need to let eat the bait for a while i would stick with a single treble or octopus hook.
Great content, great video! I think it’s great that you’re getting Carter Involved with this! This is what it’s all about! Making great memories, and for you and added bonus; videos to look back on forever. Keep up the great work!
Excellent video as always!! I have used circle hooks for years for walleye and have worked as you described . But no offset!!
Thanks so much!!!
I really like the concept.
I love how when you're out with Carter you're him have the fish!
Would rather have him catch the fish :)
You are going to love those finicky foolers!
This is insane. Your setup is like a command station for launching Apollo, Ha ha
Wow man!!! So many GIANTS!!!
Nice PB Carter!!
And that COMMAND CTR on day one, lol impressive!!!
So good :)
Omg I wish that would be a blast of a life time
Slay Day indeed !
Cs:waits 5 minutes to set the hook.
Also cs: the hook was set deeper than I expected 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Twas an epic video though so cool.
I use circle hooks for ice fishing. English hooks as well. Works really well when your weeding through small fish looking for a big one. Keeps the younger gen safe and healthy.
Possibly hook your bait just under the skin. Reeling in pulls the hooks out easier and let's the hook do its job.
Using a snell knot with heavier fluorocarbon should increase hooking in corner of mouth. Also gives you ability to set the hook sooner, hook bait lightly.
Nothing but AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME big fish 🐟 love it...
One of those huge fish in a day would be could make the whole day worthwhile! What a day! Good job to both of you! Yes, get outside!
Was an unreal day no doubt!
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors ❤
I love the Finicky Foolers! I run mine with Okuma bait feeders and it’s an awesome combo!
Love the bait feeder reels make it so much easier not having to adjust your drag
Some tank pike!! I started running circle hooks rigging for walleye a few years ago. I won't go back to an octopus hook again, it's so nice when they are all hooked in the corner of the mouth. We definitely missed a few fish trying get the hang of it. If the circle hook has an offset eye, use a snell knot or a knot that ties to the shaft of the hook and not the eyelet. Keep tying them, you will grow to like them.
Nice gators guys , congratulations on the new pb!
Those circle hooks are most effective with an improved snell knot tied to the shank. Try a 60 or 80 pound flouro leader tied directly, instead of the clip from the leader. The clip from the leader prevents the effectiveness of the "hook in the corner of the mouth". Try a video with direct tied heavy leader material in the same location. I'd watch it. Cheers. Great content. Keep it up.
This are easily my favorite videos so cool to see the pike eat down there amd swim around I cant believe the moster pike fishing you have out there Awesome
So much fun to watch them!
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors totally sick
Great job Carter!!! Hoping to see you much more. Awesome fish. Catching 3 fish is ok if they are that big.
Those pike were giants! Nice work! Love my Finiky Foolers too!
Was an awesome day!
Clayton w/ the Weird AL Vibes- "Eat IT, Eat IT, Cmon Eat IT!!" 😜
Great vid bud! Congrats to Carter!
Cheers!
Clayton, again good job keep em rollin'. Feels good letting someone next to you catch big fish.
got dang the production with the underwater cameras and the command center is amazing! fun video to watch. congrats carter on the PB
I run circle hooks on my Finicky foolers as well 🙌
That was some big pike!! Congrats, Carter on the PB.
Was an unreal day no doubt!
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors You're great at having unreal fishing days.
@@thelonesomefisherman7425 Lots of Luck!!
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors And quite a bit of skill too, to be honest.
So many new things to try ha ha. It looks like the pike passion has opened again. Time to go find some. Another awesome vid packed with info
Clayton, you should try to find circle hooks without a bend before the eyelet and use a snell knot.
Mustad Demon Perfect Circle.
Atta boy on the circle hooks! We never let them run at all! As soon as they are moving reel/pull them in. The type your using (bent end), should be tied on with a snell knot to work correctly. A straight end can be tied directly to eye.
Going to play around with them more for sure, but I have had unreal luck with a single treble so far as well.
I wouldn’t use circle hooks in the winter. I use ‘em for cats, sturgeon and pike in the summer but I always use trebles In the winter.
Looking and sounding a thousand percent better Clayton!
Another great video bud!
Man those were big fish you two caught! 40 inchers are not common in most parts of Canada. Very patient and lots of distractions; watching movies fishing? Luxury! Keep up the good work with your protegee.
Wow that footage is going to be hard to top! Next to none! Keep up the great work this video was unbelievably wicked!!!
This is awesome to watch. Caught quite a few today within the 30’s and with the biggest being 39, had the off set on the circle hook and gullet hooked 3 of them. I’ll be sure to try out no off-set on the circle hook. Thanks for the tip!
Hey, I just found your channel, and it’s got some of the best ice fishing content on TH-cam! Thank you so much! I’m getting so excited for this upcoming ice season. I hope to see some more pike this year, keep ‘em coming, man. 👍👍
Carter should real in every fish in every episode. Well done gents!
The underwater footage of this video is the best I’ve ever seen. Another banger
Thanks for watching man!
When I drift live baits for Stripers on the big lake I set the drag so it's loose enough to run and tight enough to get the hook to turn into place. Most fish are hooked in the corner or top of the mouth. My tip ups have J hooks and dead sticks circle hooks
What a way to start of the video with a pig of a 43 1/2” pike!! That beast was solid!! Well done boys.. what a day!!
Was a great start!
Love the Finiky foolers. They work way better than the bulky iFish bros I mean pros. 🤣
Just after watching this video. I just caught my pb pike at 37” on a smelt in 4 foot of water. On rod and reel, was a long crazy fight and your videos hold me over until I can get back out!
Octopus Circles is my go to on tip ups. They work great!
circle hooks are known to gut hook and kill fish when you have to cut them. I would err away from them. There's a few research pieces on the catching of musky.
how did I miss this? Amazing fish caught. You guys rock!!
better production quality and way more interesting then half the shows on outdoor TV! gotta love that big command center you got set up! hahaha
Awesome video. I started using the fineky fooler last season. Really impressed with it. Caught a lot of walleyes and Pike on them. Really shines on those cold days. I put a small peace of shrink tube just below the orange flag, and you can attach a light for night time fishing.
Off set circle octopus hooks are designed to slide out to catch the corner of the mouth less damage versus regular circle octopus hooks go with a size 4/O or 5/O I use them for stripped bass running live herring
Clayton guessed to the inch every fish... unreal!
Awesome video! I usually let them just bend the rod over with circle hooks without reeling for 3-5 seconds, then start reeling.
Luv to see you using the Finicky Fooler Tip-ups. I've been using them since the beginning. Lol, I can't find an easier Tip-up to use. Awesome video. Keep up the good fishing. 👍
We use circle hooks for catfish on the Red
Nice 44 1/2 pike, that fish was huge! Congrats!!
Love the door on the pro lodge. I hope they implement it on other sizes of their hubs. I've been thinking about picking up the cabin hub when I want to pack light on short solo trips instead of dragging out the resort by myself.
Dynamic duo!
YES!
I use circle hooks on my lindy rigs when I troll in the summer. Works great.
Clayton, great video. Watching you mentor Carter was a pleasure. The underwater video superb!
Thanks for the kind words!
Aussom 1stFish of the Day
Nice pike guys and great video.
That's badass!
Man Circle hooks!!!! we were just talking about this in December!! I use them all summer just started using them in winter too! great video!
Yup! Need to play with them more.
you fish dead bait....use the swedish pike hooks.....fish can't swallow.....they work great!!!....super cool video!!!
Amazing video 👍 what an education in fishing and filming Carter gets,, Soak it all In like a sponge 🧽
Thanks 🇨🇦🎣
A snell knot helps with catfish
Nice fish!!!!!
